What did your FEET do?



Recommended Posts

This is a huge NSV for me. I've always had big feet for a girl. Kind of embarrassed about it especially because I'm only 5'6 ish.

My brother used to make fun of me and call me Saskwatch!! So mean ????????????

Anyway, at a size 9.5 my feet were already above average. When I gained weight, they grew to a size 10.5!!! ????????????????. Almost 11!!

Oh. My. God. The horror!!

Anyway. I've lost 130 pounds. And I now wear a size 9!!!!! Yes!!!!

Thank you vsg for saving my feet. And no foot pain either!!

I'm hoping my plantar fasciitis calms down after surgery. I am typically an 8.5-9 - but usually a 9 for width. Hoping I can share my daughter's shoes -- she's an 8

Plantar fascitis has been inactive since my surgery. I am down from 10 to 9.5 and that's at 4 weeks out! Hoping for at least another 1/2 size.

I've gone from a 10W to a 9.5; regular width for sneakers/comfy shoes, still wide for heels/boots. Small victories!

My plantar fasciitis has also gone away since I lost the weight! I used to have TERRIBLE foot pain. So bad I could barely walk at times. Each morning I would limp in pain when I stood up.

I believe it was inflammation related to the high sugar diet I was eating and the stress of the weight on my small frame.

I went from a 9.5 to an 8.5. I'm super happy! I Still need to lose another 25lbs but I hope I'm done going down in shoe sizes cause I just bought 5 new boots/shoes for the winter.

It's a little early into the game for me to know for certain, but I suspect my feet will be saying thank you !!!!!!!!

"You was killing us, Haus".

I wear a 15 wide and it is hard to find shoes in this size so going down a size or two would be nice but what I am really hoping is for the foot pain to go away!

I had terrible foot pain before surgery too. Once I lost the first 50 lbs (I'm now down 82), my foot pain resolved. Now if only my feet would shrink from a size 11 to a ten...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
